Thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) are a type of thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) that undergo vulcanization processes during manufacturing, giving elastomeric properties to the final product. Vulcanization involves the cross-linking of polymer chains, leading to increased strength, durability, and flexibility.
Thermoplastic elastomers show advantages typical of both rubbery materials and plastic materials. The benefit of using thermoplastic elastomers is the ability to stretch to moderate elongations and return to its near original shape creating a longer life and better physical range than other materials.

Zytel is a trademark owned by Celanese and used to make different high-strength, abrasion, and impact-resistant thermoplastic polyamide formulations, in the family of material more commonly known as nylon.
Polylactic acid (polylactide) is a compostable thermoplastic aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch (in the United States), sugar beet pulp (in Europe), tapioca roots, chips or starch (mostly in Asia), or sugarcane. It is the most common material used for 3D printing with fused deposition modeling (FDM ...
The nylon filament line was shut down. In 1972, Chemcell changed name to Celanese Canada. In 1973, 1,500 persons were employed at Millhaven Fibres. In 1976, the second staple (manmade fiber) line was built, and the third was built in 1983. In 1987, Hoechst bought Celanese and became a majority shareholder of Celanese Canada. In 1989, the ...
British Celanese was the first factory in Britain to produce propylene and from it isopropyl alcohol and acetone in 1942. [9] Clarifoil production developed out of cellulose acetate yarn technology. Clarifoil full-scale production commenced from 1947. Henri Dreyfus died in 1944. Camille Dreyfus died in 1956.
